Owner's Comments

Randy Halcomb met me on Offner Street in Portsmouth to sell this coin. July 7, 2025. Gold spot is $3388 and Silver Spot is $38. This is number 96 out of 97 for my Morgan Dollar Set. It has been 20 years completing the Morgan Dollar Registry Set. The set name on PCGS registry web site is The Ohio State University Alumni Set. On 8/09/2025, I drove to Randy's house to pay $550 for this coin. I went to the bank and could only get $200 cash. Randy agreed to take a 1/10 ounce Gold Eagle graded MS70. He allowed me $350 for the coin and $200 cash for a total of $550.
